The forms for the 2008 Croydon Summer League are floating about amongst the secretaries so now is the time to spill the beans on any potential transfers and new teams or at least get the rumour mill going  |

I can confirm that i have witnessed Fluffy in the Edens company a few times lately but, it could be all quiet innocent...
Would have thought if there was anything to report The Power would have told us all by now...

We withdraw from the summer last season and lost our status in the process. We'll be putting a team into the lower divisions for this summer campaign. |

We're gonna help the locals in the Deer get themselves up and running for the summer, with maybe a couple of our lads joining them for spiritual guidance and wisdom.
A lot of teams / potential teams will be waiting for the outcome of thursdays meeting before signing I should imagine.

With talk of new teams and tranfers - it's good timing for me to raise an issue that's been causing me a problem for a while now:
We all know that The Surrey Cricketers does not have much to offer when it comes to cueing around the table - I presume that most of you have noticed this  hmygod: And we can't keep using the "foods good" excuse!
With this in mind and the fact that over the last couple of years we have lost John Broadway, who emigrated, Simon Brooks, who retired to the coast and Macca who just done a runner - we recruited some of the locals from the pub, but as this season is proving we are not contending as well as we have done in the past.
So for the forthcoming summer league, I would like to find a new venue and maybe a couple of new signings - Pat Heard-White has threatend to come out of retirement and join us - but in addition to this, I would like to try and get a bit of strength and experience back in the squad.
So if anyone can offer solution to the new venue in the first instance, and secondly if anyone wants to consider joining The 193's for the summer, please let me know.
Cheers - Andy. |

My sources ( usually pretty spot on ) assure me that photograph evidence can be produced at a price...
I have agreed to pay the price...
It may be all quiet innocent...
So its only right to let everyone come to their own conclusions...
Watch this space...

Taking my shots looking cool, my self-esteem?s growing tall.
Losing eyes this game is cruel. I do my thing playing pool.

I have been asked to post this picture by an anonymous source to quash rumours that Fluffy isn't signing for the Eden . .
Looks pretty conclusive to me . .

It's funny that all these pictures are on this thread . .
. . I've just this weekend caught wind of rumours that a former #1 Ranked player looks odds on to join The Propeller for this Summer's campaign . .
In addition I hear that Luke Turnbull has signed early papers for The Eagles 2008/2009 campaign . .
In other news I hear that we've just signed the legend that is John Frith from the Foreign Legion in a last minute deadline day swoop . .

I can announce some breaking news from the Farley camp. Marc Burnett will be making a return to the Croydon league after a lay off of a few seasons, and Burn has re-signed for the Farley Eden.
Also, the pot machine that is Liam Connors will return for the Eden for the summer campaign.
And Dan - that was  , and I'm really not sure what they put in those lemonades these days at Rileys but even I never had you down for posting outrageously 'fictitious' information...

Or even fictitious information . .
. . is that the same Marc Burnett whose prior Eden Cues record was P5 W1 L4 and then left?
You have the transfer prowess of David O'Leary

The stats don't lie but in the grand scheme of things its summer stats and lets face it they are not worth the paper they are written on....
What does matter though is when Marc announced he would be back as he had 'unfinished' business with the Eden. He meant it and moreover he has stood by his word....
I recall you saying those same words 'once upon a time'......

I can only apologise . . I didn't realise how good I was going to become between then and now
Anyway . . It's taken Burn 3 years to think about playing the remaining 13 games he committed to so that gives me plenty of time to throw a few your way . . Fieldsy said if he doesn't sign for The Prop then to join him at the Eden some time . . He did say that he runs the show these days and I have no reason to doubt him so I'll have a chat with him in due course . . |
